e of t e most dIfficutt tasks a recent widow or widower must face is
sorting the departed spouse's belongings. Although a will often speci-
fies that some articles should be given to friends and relatives, usual-
ly many items remain unmentioned.
It is tempting, in the difficult months following the death of a spouse,
to let one's children or friends sort his or her belongings. But this is
not advisable for two reasons.
First, one's possessions are important to him or her, and their dispo-
sal should be taken care of by someone very close. This insures that
any decisions about what to keep and what to give away will be made
according to the wishes of the deceased.
Second, sorting the belongings of a lost ioved one, is an important
step in the grieving process for the surviving spbuse. By reviewing
one last time the material things associated with the deceased, the
spouse can fully recognize that he or she is gone, and can accept
that.
